DC's 'Flash' movie lacks director, but its cast members are bonding

If things had gone according to plan, Flashpoint would have already been in the can by now. Warner Bros. and DC’s Flash standalone film about the scarlet speedster was scheduled to go into production last January — but that was before director Rick Famuyiwa exited the project over creative differences in September 2016, following original helmer Seth Grahame-Smith out the door.

“Nothing’s in stone and I’ve been talking with Ezra and we’re excited to see who’s gonna lead us on this journey,” Clemons told Yahoo Movies at the Los Angeles press day for her new film, The Only Living Boy in New York.

In the meantime, Clemons and Miller are building a big-time bond. “It’s given us a lot of time to really lean on each other,” Clemons said. “We don’t know when we’re making this movie, we don’t know who’s gonna be our director, we don’t know anything. But all we know is that we’re grateful and we can’t wait to get this thing rolling.”

The actors regularly call each other and discuss not only their hopes and concerns over Flash-related business, but other projects they want to potentially collaborate on. “It’s nice to have that relationship with someone that you’re about to spend a lot of time with,” Clemons said.
